Transport Locks
Cutter wings will need to be raised and locked before
transporting on a roadway or servicing the deck
underside. If cutter wings are down, they will need to be
raised before transporting through narrow openings.
1. Disengage power take-off and wait for cutter blades
to come to a complete stop before raising wings.
2. Raise cutter wings fully up with hydraulics.
3. Place tractor gear selector in park, shut tractor
engine off or set park brake, remove switch key, and
dismount from tractor.
4. See Figure 3-2: Remove hairpin
clip (#1) from storage lug (#2).
5. See Figure 3-3: Rotate end of transport lock bar (#3)
to cylinder pin (#4). Secure with hairpin clip (#1).
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the other wing. Your cutter is
now ready for transporting.
IMPORTANT: Always disengage tractor’s power
take-off and wait for blades to come to a complete
stop before raising the wings to transport position.
Wing drivelines, wing gearboxes, and splitter
gearbox can be damaged if driveline is turning.
NOTE: The wings are controlled with two hydraulic
lift cylinders. Be certain that the wing hydraulics are
attached to the tractor and the hydraulic hoses are
full of oil before proceeding.
